A Wonderful Day in Copenhagen 🌞

This peaceful garden tucked behind the Royal Library is one of the most tranquil spots in the city. Beautiful landscaping, seasonal flowers, and benches under old trees make it perfect for reading, relaxing, or a quiet break from sightseeing. The garden sits on what used to be Christian IV’s naval harbor, and you can still spot historic details like old mooring rings. At the center is a striking copper fountain that comes to life every hour. One of the highlights is the statue of Søren Kierkegaard, pensively gazing toward the former home of his lost love: deeply poetic in a garden connected to the library that now holds his manuscripts. Surrounded by the Black Diamond, Tøjhus Museum, and Christiansborg Palace, it’s a place where history, architecture, and calm all meet. Highly recommended if you're visiting Slotsholmen, especially if you need a quiet spot to recharge.

The Royal Library Garden (Danish: Det Kongelige Biblioteks Have), often referred to simply as the Library Garden, is a small, somewhat hidden garden between the Royal Library, the Tøjhus Museum, ChristianIV's Supply Depot and Christiansborg Palace on Slotsholmen in central Copenhagen, Denmark. It has a reputation for being one of the most tranquil spots in the city centre. There used to be a harbour here in medieval times. Only a few minutes from strøget It’s a perfect oasis away from city stress and noise - bring a chilled bottle of wine and a blanket and you will have a perfect picnic here. There are surpricingly few people here which is part of The charm.

I almost feel like I shouldn’t reveal just how much I enjoy this little gem of a park, since that might make it to popular, and then become overrun 🫣

But then again, why keep the good things to yourself, when you can share it with others, and make them happy 🥰

The Garden of the Royal Library is such a beautiful place, hidden away between the parliament and the Royal Library. Here is lies nestled between gorgeous old buildings, with big trees for shade in the summer, grass to lie on,...
